Answer:

95%: (3278.354 ; 3270.083)

99% : (3221.646 ; 3278.354)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Sample size, n = 12

Mean, xbar = 3250

Sample standard deviation = √1000

The 95% confidence interval :

Mean ± Margin of error

Margin of Error = Tcritical * s/√n

Tcritical at 0.05, df=12-1 = 11 ;

Tcritical at 95% = 2.20

Hence,

Margin of Error = (2.20 * √1000/√12) = 20.083

Confidence interval : 3250 ± 20.083

Lower boundary = 3250 - 20.083 = 3229.917

Upper boundary = 3250 + 20.083 = 3270.083

2.)

The 99% confidence interval :

Mean ± Margin of error

Margin of Error = Tcritical * s/√n

Tcritical at 0.01, df=12-1 = 11 ;

Tcritical at 99% = 3.106

Hence,

Margin of Error = (3.106 * √1000/√12) = 28.354

Confidence interval : 3250 ± 28.354

Lower boundary = 3250 - 28.354 = 3221.646

Upper boundary = 3250 + 28.354 = 3278.354

How would the number of times edgardo uses a container to fill the 10 gallon cooler change if he uses a one cup container? Expla
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

Edgardo would use the container <u>160 times</u> to fill.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Edgardo uses a container to fill the 10 gallon cooler.

If he uses a one cup container.

Now, to find the times it would take to fill the 10 gallon container.

As, the capacity of container = 1 cup.

And, the capacity of cooler = 10 gallon.

So, we use conversion factor to find the times the container to fill the cooler:

1 gallon = 16 cups.

10 gallon = 10\times 16\ cups.

10 gallon = 160 cups.

<u><em>Thus, to fill the 10 gallon cooler 160 cups of container needed.</em></u>

<u><em>And, the container is of 1 cup.</em></u>

So, to get the times he would use the container we divide 160 by 1:

160\div 1=160.

<u><em>Hence, 160 times Edgardo would use the 1 cup container to fill the 10 gallon cooler.</em></u>

Therefore, Edgardo would use the container 160 times to fill.

Divide the 4th degree polynomial
iragen [17]

Answer:

  • quotient: 10x +16
  • remainder: 28x^2 +10x +22

Step-by-step explanation:

The attachment shows the steps.

  quotient: 10x +16

  remainder: 28x^2 +10x +22

_____

Polynomial long division is easier than numerical long division because you only need to examine the first terms to determine the quotient term.

The first quotient term is 10x^4/x^3 = 10x.

The second quotient term is 16x^3/x^3 = 16.

When the leading dividend term is lower degree than the divisor, that dividend is the remainder.

The smallest of 6 consecutive integers is p, and the greatest is q. What is the value of the average of p and q in terms of p?
Paladinen [302]

Answer:

Option A.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that the smallest of 6 consecutive integers is p. So, all numbers are

p,p+1,p+2,p+3,p+4,p+5

The greatest is q.  

q=p+5

Now, the value of the average of p and q in terms of p is

Average=\dfrac{p+q}{2}

Average=\dfrac{p+p+5}{2}

Average=\dfrac{2p+5}{2}

Average=\dfrac{2p}{2}+\dfrac{5}{2}

Average=p+2.5

Therefore, the correct option is A.
